Workers spend an afternoon piecing together a massive Mittelwerk GmbH V-2 Nazi rocket Monday, May 20, 2013, at the Flying Heritage Collection in Everett. The rocket is one of 16 remaining in the world and the only one of its kind in Washington. This particular V-2 was restored from pieces recovered from an underground facility in Germany, and will remain on permanent display in Paul Allen’s Flying Heritage Collection.
